Can you guys make a logbook entry when a jet gets worked on by a guy pulling a 13 hour shift or a "double"?
Because I have ZERO interest in flying it in that case.
Many in Tulsa are now losing their second jobs since the company has decided to treat us all like we are in prison. Absolutely no C/S allowed. Fixed start/stop times so those who either worked it out to start a little early or late to accomodate another job to try to make up loss of pay from AA are now going to be out of luck. Of course the TWU has been mum on all this. We will have to stick to a strict schedule and watch management come and go as they please. Traffic jams are now common occurance in the parking lot. It seems management in Tulsa is going out of their way to make us as miserable as they can, with the TWU's blessing it looks like. How would no C/S allowed go over at the line stations? Get ready. I am thinking if it is not allowed in Tulsa it won't be allowed elsewhere.We are worn out anyway, many work doubles, thats 17 hours, simply to try and survive. I used to do two doubles and a single every week, then I could work a second job two full days and still have a weekend. What I see guys doing with this is working two shifts and giving away the third, this way they could work full time somewhere else.
Believe it or not, AA in Tulsa is the only place I've worked at that allowed (custom shifts) to fit your personal life.Many in Tulsa are now losing their second jobs since the company has decided to treat us all like we are in prison.

So you're saying that you were never allowed to C/S off and C/S on at any station you have been at? In my humble opinion, a C/S is a C/S. Doesn't matter if you C/S to work a double shift, work a day off or change your start stop time. The point is, C/S is allowed at line stations and now it is not allowed in Tulsa. Bottom line is line guys can C/S to accomodate a part time job and Tulsa guys can't. But, 74% of the koolaid drinkers in Tulsa were stupid enough to vote for a contract that had work rules and overtime rules to be written later.Believe it or not, AA in Tulsa is the only place I've worked at that allowed (custom shifts) to fit your personal life.

Nope, Every other airline or business I worked for, start and stop times were just that. You were allowed to C/S for doctors appointments, but not for kids sports or "part time jobs".So you're saying that you were never allowed to C/S off and C/S on at any station you have been at?
